From BETE Fog Nozzle, Inc.
THE HAZARDS OF HYDROGEN FLUORIDE (HF) have long been recognized. However, full-scale industry-sponsored HF release tests conducted at the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) test site in 1986 caused additional concern in view of HF's toxicity. Ambient impacts were greater than anticipated, and diking, a primary mitigation technique, proved ineffective for releases of pressurized superheated HF.
The ICHMAP released a report (Effectiveness of Water Spray Mitigation Systems for Accidental Release of Hydrogen Fluoride) following several years' study of water spray mitigation systems. BETE was closely involved in this study component, providing test nozzles and the use of our lab facilities.
